My best friend wants to get circumcized...?!
Question: We're both un-circumcized and I want to be a good friend and tell him that its his body so his choice but I really think I should talk him out of this. He only wants it because he thinks girls will turn him down for being un-circumcized. Has this ever happened to anybody, because not me. Should i talk him out of it?

Tell him 70% of the nerves are in the foreskin, and they'll be permanently gone. So his penis will be feel 70% less pleasure, for the rest of his life.
yess that would be sooooooo painful
It's up to him...if he is that self concious he should do it but a girl is ignorant if she turns a guy down for his penis being uncircumsized. As long as he cleans it, it doesn't matter if it's cut or not.
If I girl cared whether I was circumcised or not, I wouldn't want her anyway.
i think it looks better circumsized but itll hurt like hell. tell him to think of a strange man taking a knife to his penis.
You never mentioned your age or your friends age. At any rate, it is his choice and there are benefits to being circumcised, like no smegma if you don't have a chance to shower daily. No pulling the skin back when you pee, etc. As far as girls go, if they judge you by your penis then they are not worth being with. How would a girl know the difference if she hasn't seen a few before yours or your friends? What type of girl are you guys after, and what kind of boy friends would you make if you have to have sex with different girls? By the way, it's a myth about nerves being lost when you are circumsized. Think about it, there is a head exposed.
Yes, talk to him about it, and explain that any girl that actually likes him won't care that he has foreskin or not. Being uncircumsized is perfectly natural and more normal than you might think. I've never ever been turned down on the basis that I have foreskin.
While you should make sure that he understands that you know it's his body and his choice, it's probably a good idea to try to talk him out of it. Most women actually don't care if a guy's circumcised or not as long as it's clean. Some women will reject guys due to being circumcised or not, but then your friend shouldn't be with such a shallow person.
Also, let him know there are lots of nerves in the foreskin that could contribute to sexual sensitivity (links 1, 2). And several studies have also suggested that the foreskin may actually be good towards the sexual pleasure/satisfaction of not only the guy, but the woman as well (links 3, 4, 5).
So yeah, if he's not having any physical problems with his foreskin and he keeps it clean, there's no good reason to get circumcised. To do so to please another person's not a good enough reason. Also, about 70-80% of the world's men are uncircumcised, and most of them never have any problems and clearly the women that go with those men either don't care or prefer the foreskin.
So take a look at the links and show them to your friend. Hopefully he'll change his mind. But in the end, it is his body and his choice. If he ends up regretting his decision, that's his ultimately deal.
I would try to talk him out of it.
The fact is, most girls won't care. It's a terrible reason to get cut and once it's done, it's done. I'm uncut and I've never been turned down by a girl because of it. And if I were, I wouldn't want to get circumcised. I would think the girl was a moron and a waste of my time anyway.
tell him girls only care about size and they like playin around with the extra skin my gf likes it.
he--and you--should get circumcised..i cant believe that you both r having second thoughts on this matter!
I was circumcised at 18 and would do it again in a heartbeat! Yes prior to it more than a few girls wouldn't have anything to do with it! I will tell you sex is 100% better when you are circumcised! If I thought I screwed up I would have never had my son's (1&3) circumcised, but I know that there is no downside only an upside to being circumcised!
